if it's deep analysis of the ketamine phenomenon you're after, then I strongly recommend this video...

E is the only drug that really brings people together in my experience.
It changed a generation - even getting footie thugs from opposing teams to hug each other and mix with gays. (unheard of in the 80s)
People also dropped designer labels and crossed class divides for the first time in about a decade.
...AND it was proven to be great for marriage guidance counseling.
However - dancing in its purest form is a very shamanic act and shouldn't really require drugs at all. It's as old as time.
Leo (the guy that runs my course) is a huge advocate of e but thinks alcohol is a destructive substance which reinforces the ego and separates us from one another. I'm inclined to agree with him tbh.
I think we're better off without any of it to be honest.
Given the option of spending time on a shamanic course or hanging out at the pseudo 'spiritual' stone circle at Glastonbury during sunrise I know which I'd choose!
speaking of drugs v clubs... i had the misfortune of visiting this sh*t hole frequently:

i've never before or since seen a place quite like it.
still in contact with matt howse who is in part 3. people from that era seem to be having a collective mid life crisis and have restarted the once legendary slammer acid house parties in gravesend, kent. from the pics i've seen the following is immense... same crowd, but slightly less agile.
Robder what course are you doing?? Sounds intriguing!
Far too airy fairy to post on here I'm afraid...will PM you if you like but remind me.
go on then
thing is, the music has been around for long enough for people to get old to now. I think alot of the older people ARE becoming health nuts. I think they DON'T want to stay out all night and get ****ed on drugs and alchohol, they DON'T want to smoke and their priorities have changed. I think alot still want to go out to the music and all that but do it alot more responsibly so as to not have to wake up the next day with a world of issues to saught out.
People want everything clean now.
F/U/C/K the poxy drugs. The amount of times over the years Ive had addling buffoons ask me if I got any of that crap on me. ooooooooooo but you drink.....yes I do and when into the tunage I can dance all night without the aid of some ****y pill some scum bag has knocked up...
If your into the music your into it
